The Center for One Health Illinois at the College of Veterinary Medicine in Urbana is planning a lecture series in the spring of 2013 to bring awareness to issues with human, animal, and environmental dimensions.

Four lectures are planned, two of which will be offered in Chicago as well as in Urbana. The two-hour events will consist of brief presentations from 4-5 panelists in the first hour, followed by questions and discussion with the audience.

Marijuana, Monsters, and Milk: Public Health Perspectives will cover a range of topics including marijuana legalization, energy ("monster") drinks, antimicrobials in milk and meat, bottled water, vaccinations, and cell phones.
